What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Space Betrayers is currently in a very playable state, with an overall good stability and performance. There is still a lot of content that we wish to add, and Early Access is a great way to let players help us shape out how the game is going to be.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect to take at least one year on Early Access, but depending on how much content we end up adding based on the feedback it might take longer.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to add complementary mechanics to the game, new cards and re-balance according to the additions made. Our current Roadmap can give you a good idea of the type of content we have already planned.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is very stable and optimized, and the main mechanics, listed in the "ABOUT THIS GAME" section, are fully functional. Our current goal is to add features to increase diversity and replayability.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We have no plans on that yet, but the price is likely to remain the same.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Space Betrayers is a game mainly about social interactions, and as such we can’t anticipate all sorts of behaviors players could use. That is one of the main reasons we always focus on user feedback to guide our steps, as we demonstrated during our previous demos. The structure of the game allows us to make changes and fixes quickly, and we also have plans to allow users to participate in mechanics/card experiments without having to use a beta version.

Currently, we receive feedback mostly through our Discord, but we also want the Steam community to help us with feedback.”
